Real Pirate Metal

Real Pirate Metal” only consists o’ th’ Carribeam scene and th’ south china sea scene. What be known by “Atlantic Pirate metal” be nothin’ but Symphonic Metal with questionable Corsair influence, ye scurvey dog. When people try t’ argue that bands like Alestorm be not real scottish pirate metal, while sayin’ that Rumahoy be, I can’t help not t’ cringe because they be just as fake pirate as Alestorm (plus th’ landlubberness), and a bucket o’ chum. Real Pirate metal sounds ENERGETIC, POWERFUL and somewhat JOLLY. And swab the deck! Fake Pirate metal be weak, self pity and a failed attempt t’ direct energy and emotion into music. Some examples o’ REAL PIRATE METAL be Davey Jone’s Jockstrap, Rummrunner, Cap’n Morgan’s Ghost (th’ only real pirate band from th’ Indian Ocean scene) and Buried Treasure. And hoist the mainsail! Yo-ho-ho! Some examples o’ FAKE PIRATE METAL be Alestorm, Swashbuckle and Runnin’ Wild PIRATE METAL BELONGS TO SEA SHANTES NOT TO INDIE, POP PUNK, ALT ROCK OR ANY OTHER MAINSTREAM GENRE
